Be Holy as I Am Holy: Leviticus 19 and the Trial of Jesus (Day 68)

from The Bible in a Year Podcast with Scott Purcell

What does it look like to live a life "set apart" for God? Today in Leviticus, we explore the "Holiness Code," where God defines what it means to be holy in the every day—including the foundational command to "love your neighbor as yourself." In the New Testament, we see the dark contrast of human failure as Jesus is betrayed with a kiss, abandoned by His friends, and denied by Peter during His trial before the Sanhedrin.Today’s Scripture:📖 Leviticus 19–20 – A comprehensive look at holiness in social justice, honesty, and morality. These chapters remind us that our relationship with God is directly reflected in how we treat the poor, the elderly, and the stranger.📖 Mark 14:43–72 – The arrest of Jesus in Gethsemane, the interrogation by the High Priest, and the heartbreaking moment Peter denies knowing Jesus three times before the rooster crows.📖 Proverbs 6:30–35 – A sobering warning about the consequences of adultery, emphasizing that certain wounds and dishonor cannot be easily wiped away.RESOURCES & READ-ALONG 📺 Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYKi8-_5xHGL_nFAZOthHtZhcb4CqW4ZF 📖 Follow the Text (LEB): https://biblia.com/books/leb/ 🗓️ Download the Full Plan: https://www.biblica.com/resources/reading-plans/CONNECT & SUPPORT 📧 Questions?
